Mast crop predictions this fall.

Last fall we had a bumper crop of acorns falling into the Northeast woods as everywhere else. The deer were all over them and probably helped them through our cold and snowy winter. What are the chances of that happening two years running. The rainfall was heavy in the spring but not much at all in June and July.

I know we have a pile of acorns and hickory nuts again this year in out area of Vermont, alot of the same trees are LLLLLoaded again. The apples did not fare so well they are kinda spotty but some of my best stands have good apples and lots of nuts.

Reds and Whites loaded in my part of southern Kentucky.Problem is most are real small now and some are starting to drop now.Way to early.I believe the heat has them stressed.Persimmons also loaded and falling.

The fall crop depends heavily on late Freeze.. If you get a freeze after your oaks flower then you will get a thin White oak crop. Red oaks flower bi-annual so it depends on last years last freeze.... So When was the last Freez the last 2 years in your area?? Big Buck hunting is a year around observation commitment..

Here in central Ct. the trees are loaded and it is raining acorns. Some are medium but most are small but over the past 20 years that I have watched this it is about normal. Over this time I have only seen three years like last year, where there were almost no acorns at all and the first year that the deer in the area were on lawns mid day eating shrubs during the winter.Now I live on the outscirts of the 5th largest city in the state and for years my neighbors did not believe we even had deer in the area,they believe it now.
